Stock Market Crash: Sensex and Nifty in Turmoil Amid Global Tensions
Stock Market Crash Overview
In a shocking turn of events, the Sensex has crashed over 4,100 points in just five trading sessions, leaving a staggering Rs 16 lakh crore hole in investor portfolios. This decline is largely attributed to the unsettling combination of the Iran-Israel war and a significant Chinese stimulus package that has triggered a wave of selling in the Indian stock market.
Impact of Global Tensions on Indian Shares
The dual threat posed by geopolitical frictions and aggressive fiscal measures abroad has caused Dalal Street to reel under pressure. As foreign investors pull back their funds, there is growing unease about the stability of Indian shares.

- In the recent trading week, Sensex recorded its worst performance, falling 4.3%. Nifty trailed with a decline of 4.5%.
- FIIs have withdrawn nearly Rs 32,000 crore in recent sessions, marking the highest single-day outflow.
